We delivered a record FY26, at the top end of guidance, with revenue from ongoing activities rising 13% at actual exchange rates and 8% organically to US$8.4 billion. Organic growth was at 9% in Q4, further demonstrating the momentum in the business.

These results reflect more than strong execution. They show the power of our strategy, the trust placed in our data and decisioning capabilities, and the central role we are playing as businesses and consumers embrace AI to move with greater speed, confidence and impact. Read more here.

Across our business, we are building momentum by combining innovation at scale with deep client relationships and understanding of their needs. In FY26, we won new B2B clients, strengthened strategic relationships and expanded our free membership base to more than 215 million. This supported the US$2 billion in revenue (nearly ¼ of our total revenue) from new and scaling products, reflecting the strength of our innovation engine and our ability to turn new ideas into meaningful growth.

Our global platforms are helping define what comes next. By introducing agentic workflows within Ascend that bring together AI, data, analytics and decisioning, we are enabling clients to automate complex processes in ways that are more intelligent, trusted and scalable.

Our multi-year partnership with ServiceNow is another example of how we are extending that impact across the enterprise. We are also helping shape the trust layer for agentic commerce through Experian Agent Trust, a new framework designed to verify identity, intent and authorisation in AI-driven transactions.

We are also reimagining how consumers access trusted financial information in an AI-first world. In North America, we launched our Insurance Marketplace app on ChatGPT and integrated into Snapchat’s AI Sponsored Snaps offering, bringing AI-powered credit and personal finance information to new audiences at scale. In the UK and Ireland, we introduced the UK’s first credit score app on ChatGPT, while in Brazil we embedded our financial education content into conversational AI experiences.

Looking ahead, we see significant opportunities. Demand for trusted data, identity, verification and decisioning is growing as organisations look to scale AI responsibly, and we are uniquely positioned to help them do so.
